In the desert of our dreams, a vision appears
A promise of paradise, through joyous tears
A haven where love shines bright, and heartache fades away
A utopia of happiness, where every day is a sunny day

But as we reach for it, like a mirage on the sand
It vanishes, leaving us with empty hands
A fleeting illusion, born of hope and desire
A promise of forever, that sets our hearts on fire

For in the realm of perfection, nothing's as it seems
A flawless facade, that hides the truth's dark dreams
The cracks of imperfection, that mar the surface bright
A beauty that's too good, to be held in mortal sight

Yet still we chase the dream, of a love that's pure and true 
A bond that's unbreakable, a heart that's forever new
But like the mirage, it shimmers, and disappears from view
Leaving us with longing, and a heart that's broken in two

For nothing's perfect, in this world we roam
And the pursuit of perfection, is a journey to nowhere we call home
So let us embrace, the beauty of the flawed
And find the love and joy, in the imperfections we've bestowed.
